Like days of yore

We’re spending a day like the pioneers… we have no electricity.  I suppose this wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world except that we didn’t have any warning, and we slept through the daylight part of the day, and are attempting to fumble around in the darkness while doing things like feeding the cats.  I found out that the gas stove has an electronic ignition (although I was able to get a burner going using a match).  I’m only on the computer now because I’ve got about an hour of time left on my battery, and I was able to find an unsecured wifi network somewhere in our area (thank you, neighbours without modem security).  I can’t do things like read my email (it’s all on my desktop computer), so if I owe you any emails or messages, hopefully you’ll get them tomorrow.  Our power will be back on “sometime before 9pm tomorrow night”, so it’s gonna be a long, long day.
